Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sealing device in a bag-making filling machine, with a simple configuration, in which a pair of sealing bodies facing each other across a conveyance path of a cylindrical film are movable linearly in a conveyance direction of the cylindrical film in the state of holding the cylindrical film.SOLUTION: By the rotation of an operating body 14, upper and lower sealing bodies 8 and 9 are linked with a pressing body 26 and moved in the facing direction of both sealing bodies 8 and 9 and the conveyance direction of the cylindrical film. In the movement in the facing direction, even when both sealing bodies 8 and 9 are abutted, since the pressing body 26 is moved by the rotation of the operating body 14, a coil spring 34 energizes the lower sealing body 9, both sealing bodies 8 and 9 are moved linearly in the conveyance direction of the cylindrical film in the state of maintaining an engagement position in the facing direction to impart a prescribed sealing pressure to the cylindrical film.

Description

本発明は、筒状のフィルムに所定のシールを施して包装袋を得るようにした製袋充填機のシール装置に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a sealing device for a bag making and filling machine in which a cylindrical bag is given a predetermined seal to obtain a packaging bag.

帯状フィルムを筒状に成形しながら筒状フィルム中に物品を供給して所定のシールを施して包装品を得るシール装置としては、上下に対向して配設された一対のシール体が互いに接近して筒状フィルムを挟持した当接状態で筒状フィルムの搬送方向の上流側から下流側へ移動しながら離間して筒状フィルムにシールを施すようにボックスモーション運動を行うものが知られている。   As a sealing device that obtains a packaged product by supplying articles into a cylindrical film while forming a strip-shaped film into a cylindrical shape and obtaining a packaged product, a pair of sealing bodies arranged facing each other up and down approach each other It is known that the box motion motion is performed so that the cylindrical film is sealed while moving from the upstream side to the downstream side in the conveyance direction of the cylindrical film with the cylindrical film sandwiched therebetween. Yes.

例えば、特許文献1に示されたシール装置においては、ばねによって付勢された一方のシール体が、一対のシール体の当接状態で、他方のシール体により押圧されてばねの付勢力に抗して退避するため、半径方向へ幾分つぶれた円弧軌跡を描くように移動する。その退避に伴い、筒状フィルムが両シール体によって搬送される方向と交差する向きに引張力を受け、シール動作が不安定になる問題があった。   For example, in the sealing device disclosed in Patent Document 1, one seal body biased by a spring is pressed against the biasing force of the spring by being pressed by the other seal body in a contact state of the pair of seal bodies. In order to evacuate, it moves so as to draw an arc locus that is somewhat collapsed in the radial direction. Along with the retraction, there is a problem that the sealing operation becomes unstable due to a tensile force in a direction crossing the direction in which the tubular film is conveyed by both seal bodies.

そこで、特許文献2に示されたシール装置においては、一対のシール体の当接状態で収縮するばねを夫々のシール体に配設すると共に、駆動歯車や偏心歯車等の駆動伝達機構により、両シール体の当接面が筒状フィルムの搬送方向の上流側から下流側へ直線的に移動するように改善されている。しかし、経年劣化等によってばね定数が変化して、一方のシール体側のばねの付勢力と他方のシール体側のばねの付勢力とのバランスが崩れると、両シール体の当接状態における高さ位置が変化し、両シール体の移動軌跡が設定状態とは異なってしまうため、それらのばねの付勢力等を厳しく管理しなければならない。   Therefore, in the sealing device disclosed in Patent Document 2, a spring that contracts in a contact state between a pair of seal bodies is provided in each seal body, and both drive transmission mechanisms such as drive gears and eccentric gears are used to The contact surface of the sealing body is improved so as to move linearly from the upstream side to the downstream side in the conveyance direction of the tubular film. However, if the spring constant changes due to deterioration over time and the balance between the biasing force of the spring on one seal body and the biasing force of the spring on the other seal body is lost, the height position in the contact state of both seal bodies Changes, and the movement trajectories of both the sealing bodies are different from the set state. Therefore, it is necessary to strictly manage the urging force of the springs.

Therefore, the tubular film 4 is sandwiched between the pair of seal bodies 8 and 9 at the front and rear positions of the article 7 in the tubular film 4 and laterally sealed in the left-right direction intersecting the transport direction of the tubular film 4. The film 4 is cut to obtain a pillow package.

図2及び図3に示すように、支持枠10は、筒状フィルム4の搬送路の左右両側に配設されたサイドフレーム11によって一部が構成されている。各サイドフレーム11における支持パネル12には、円盤状のギヤ部を有する作動体14(作動手段)が回転可能に支持されていると共に駆動シャフト15が支持されている。駆動シャフト15の2箇所には、連動ギヤ15aが取着されており、各連動ギヤ15aが各作動体14の外周に配設されたギヤ歯14aに噛合されている。更に、一方の支持パネル12の外側にはサーボモータ16(駆動源)が配設されている。そのサーボモータ16の駆動力は、プーリー伝達手段17により駆動シャフト15に伝達され、各連動ギヤ15aを介して各作動体14のギヤ歯14aに入力される。そのため、各作動体14はサーボモータ16に連係して所定方向に回転する。   As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, a part of the support frame 10 is constituted by side frames 11 disposed on the left and right sides of the conveyance path of the tubular film 4. An operation body 14 (operation means) having a disk-like gear portion is rotatably supported on the support panel 12 in each side frame 11 and a drive shaft 15 is supported. Interlocking gears 15 a are attached to two locations of the drive shaft 15, and the interlocking gears 15 a are meshed with gear teeth 14 a disposed on the outer periphery of each operating body 14. Further, a servo motor 16 (drive source) is disposed outside the one support panel 12. The driving force of the servomotor 16 is transmitted to the drive shaft 15 by the pulley transmission means 17 and is input to the gear teeth 14a of each operating body 14 via each interlocking gear 15a. Therefore, each operating body 14 rotates in a predetermined direction in conjunction with the servo motor 16.

各支持パネル12の下端部の前後方向(筒状フィルム4の搬送方向)における両側にはステー18が支持パネル12の内側へ突出しており、各ステー18間にはガイドロッド19が支持パネル12に対し平行に前後方向へ延びるように架設されている。各ガイドロッド19には支軸21によって互いに連結されたガイド体20が前後方向へ移動可能に支持されている。各ガイド体20にはスライドロッド22(他方の支持手段)が上下方向へ移動可能に嵌入されている。各スライドロッド22の上端間及び下端間には夫々連結体23,24(他方の支持手段)が架設されている。上側の連結体23には上シール体8が取着されている。   On both sides of the lower end of each support panel 12 in the front-rear direction (carrying direction of the tubular film 4), stays 18 protrude inward of the support panel 12, and between each stay 18, a guide rod 19 extends to the support panel 12. It is constructed so as to extend in the front-rear direction in parallel. Each guide rod 19 supports a guide body 20 connected to each other by a support shaft 21 so as to be movable in the front-rear direction. A slide rod 22 (the other support means) is fitted in each guide body 20 so as to be movable in the vertical direction. Between the upper end and the lower end of each slide rod 22, connecting bodies 23 and 24 (the other support means) are installed. The upper seal body 8 is attached to the upper connecting body 23.

各ガイド体20の上方で一対のスライドロッド22には押圧体26(可動手段)がガイド体20に対して接近・離間し得るよう架設されている。押圧体26は、各スライドロッド22を上下方向へ移動可能に嵌入しており、押圧体26の左右両側下部は、作動体14の偏心位置で作動体14から突出した偏心ピン14bと軸受(不図示)を介して連結されている。押圧体26の中央付近には中空状に形成された筒体29(可動手段)が挿着されており、各筒体29には軸部32(延出部)が筒体29に対し上下動可能に挿嵌されている。各軸部32の上端は筒体29から突出しており、下シール体9を支持する台部31(一方の支持手段)に取着されており、各軸部32(一方の支持手段)の下端は棒状の連結体33(一方の支持手段)に取着されている。台部31と押圧体26の間には、コイルばね34(付勢手段)が軸部32の外周に巻装されて筒体29に配設されており、コイルばね34は筒体29から外周に延出形成されたフランジ29aを押圧体26に常に付勢している。連結体33の左右両端部には軸受33bが取り付けられ、押圧体26に形成された溝26aに対し上下動可能に嵌め込まれている。   Above each guide body 20, a pair of slide rods 22 is provided with a pressing body 26 (movable means) so that it can approach and separate from the guide body 20. The pressing body 26 is fitted so that each slide rod 22 can be moved in the vertical direction, and the lower left and right sides of the pressing body 26 are provided with an eccentric pin 14 b protruding from the operating body 14 at the eccentric position of the operating body 14, and Are connected to each other. A hollow cylindrical body 29 (movable means) is inserted in the vicinity of the center of the pressing body 26, and a shaft portion 32 (extending portion) moves vertically with respect to the cylindrical body 29 in each cylindrical body 29. It is inserted as possible. The upper end of each shaft portion 32 protrudes from the cylindrical body 29, is attached to a base portion 31 (one support means) that supports the lower seal body 9, and the lower end of each shaft portion 32 (one support means). Is attached to a rod-like connecting body 33 (one support means). A coil spring 34 (biasing means) is wound around the outer periphery of the shaft portion 32 between the pedestal 31 and the pressing body 26 and disposed on the cylindrical body 29, and the coil spring 34 extends from the cylindrical body 29 to the outer periphery. The flange 29a formed to extend to the pressing body 26 is always urged. Bearings 33b are attached to the left and right ends of the coupling body 33, and are fitted in a groove 26a formed in the pressing body 26 so as to be movable up and down.

連結体33にはトグルリンク機構35(力伝達手段)が連結されている。トグルリンク機構35は、ガイド体20と、ガイド体20に配設された支軸21と、支軸21に回動可能に支持された回動体36と、上リンク37(一方のリンク)と、下リンク38(他方のリンク)とを備えている。上リンク37は、回動体36の一方の端部36a及び連結体33に対し夫々回動可能に支持されている。下リンク38は、回動体36の他方の端部36b及び連結体24に対し夫々回動可能に支持されている。なお、上リンク37と下リンク38とは、支軸21を回動中心に点対称で動くよう、リンクの長さや取付け角度などが設定されている。   A toggle link mechanism 35 (force transmission means) is coupled to the coupling body 33. The toggle link mechanism 35 includes a guide body 20, a support shaft 21 disposed on the guide body 20, a rotating body 36 rotatably supported on the support shaft 21, an upper link 37 (one link), And a lower link 38 (the other link). The upper link 37 is supported so as to be rotatable with respect to one end 36 a of the rotating body 36 and the connecting body 33. The lower link 38 is supported so as to be rotatable with respect to the other end 36 b of the rotating body 36 and the connecting body 24. The upper link 37 and the lower link 38 have link lengths, attachment angles, and the like set so as to move point-symmetrically about the support shaft 21 as a rotation center.

各作動体14がサーボモータ16に連係して所定方向に1回転する間に偏心ピン14bの高さ位置が変化して押圧体26の高さ位置が上下に変化する。押圧体26が所定の高さ位置に上昇するまでは、コイルばね34が長さを一定に保った状態で台部31を上方へ押圧することから、押圧体26と一緒に、台部31及び台部31と連結された軸部32、連結体33、下シール体9も上昇する。連結体33の上昇に伴って、トグルリンク機構35を介して、他方の支持手段である下側の連結体24とスライドロッド22と上側の連結体23と上シール体8が下方へ移動するため、上下のシール体8,9が互いに接近する。そして、押圧体26が前記所定の高さ位置まで上昇すると、両シール体8,9は当接状態になる(図4(a))。   The height position of the eccentric pin 14b changes and the height position of the pressing body 26 changes up and down while each operating body 14 makes one rotation in a predetermined direction in conjunction with the servo motor 16. Until the pressing body 26 rises to a predetermined height position, the coil spring 34 presses the base portion 31 in a state in which the length is kept constant. Therefore, together with the pressing body 26, the base portion 31 and The shaft portion 32 connected to the base portion 31, the connecting body 33, and the lower seal body 9 are also raised. As the connecting member 33 is raised, the lower connecting member 24, the slide rod 22, the upper connecting member 23, and the upper seal member 8 as the other supporting means move downward through the toggle link mechanism 35. The upper and lower seal bodies 8, 9 approach each other. Then, when the pressing body 26 is raised to the predetermined height position, both the sealing bodies 8 and 9 are brought into contact with each other (FIG. 4A).

上下のシール体8,9が互いに当接した後も、作動体14における偏心ピン14bが最上方に位置するまでは、作動体14の回転により押圧体26が上方へ移動する。この両シール体8,9の当接後における押圧体26の上方への移動においては、両シール体8,9が当接していることから、押圧体26は筒体29でコイルばね34を縮めながら下シール体9を支持する台部31に接近し、筒体29の下端が連結体33から離間した状態が継続する。この間、押圧体26から連結体33への動力がコイルばね34によって吸収されて、連結体33が下シール体9と共に停止して上リンク37及び下リンク38の回動角度が維持されることから、上下のシール体8,9の噛合位置が保持され、両シール体8,9間にはコイルばね34の収縮によってシール圧が得られる。本実施形態では、図4(b)のごとく、押圧体26の移動によってコイルばね34が最大で長さLだけ収縮して筒体29の下端部が連結体33の凹部33aから最大長さLだけ離れてシール圧を得るよう設定されている。なお、一対のシール体8,9が筒状フィルム4を挟持して、筒状フィルム4にシール圧を付与する両シール体の噛合時には、コイルばね34が押圧体26の移動によって収縮する最大長さは、フィルムの厚みによって実質長さLより短くなる。   Even after the upper and lower seal bodies 8 and 9 come into contact with each other, the pressing body 26 moves upward by the rotation of the operating body 14 until the eccentric pin 14b of the operating body 14 is positioned at the uppermost position. In the upward movement of the pressing body 26 after the contact between both the sealing bodies 8 and 9, since both the sealing bodies 8 and 9 are in contact, the pressing body 26 contracts the coil spring 34 with the cylindrical body 29. However, the state which approached the base part 31 which supports the lower seal body 9 and the lower end of the cylinder 29 was separated from the connection body 33 continues. During this time, the power from the pressing body 26 to the coupling body 33 is absorbed by the coil spring 34, and the coupling body 33 stops together with the lower seal body 9, and the rotation angles of the upper link 37 and the lower link 38 are maintained. The meshing positions of the upper and lower seal bodies 8 and 9 are maintained, and a seal pressure is obtained between the seal bodies 8 and 9 by contraction of the coil spring 34. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4B, the coil spring 34 is contracted by the length L at the maximum by the movement of the pressing body 26, and the lower end portion of the cylindrical body 29 extends from the recess 33 a of the coupling body 33 to the maximum length L. It is set to get the seal pressure away only. It should be noted that the maximum length that the coil spring 34 contracts due to the movement of the pressing body 26 when the seal bodies 8 and 9 sandwich the cylindrical film 4 and the both sealing bodies that apply the sealing pressure to the cylindrical film 4 are engaged. The length is shorter than the substantial length L depending on the thickness of the film.

その後、作動体14の回転が継続すると押圧体26が下方へ移動する。この押圧体26の下方への移動においては、図4(c)に示すように、押圧体26が下シール体9から離れる方向に長さLだけ移動するまでは連結体33には押圧体26から直接動力が伝達されず、上リンク37及び下リンク38の回動角度が図4(a)及び図4(b)と同じ角度に維持される。この間、コイルばね34の押圧が徐々に緩められる。押圧体26が下シール体9から長さLだけ離れて筒体29の下端部が連結体33の凹部33aに当接する(図4(d)参照)と、両シール体8,9が次のサイクルで当接状態(図4(a)の状態)になるまで連結体33と押圧体26とコイルばね34と下シール体9とが同じ位置関係を維持したまま、上下のシール体8,9が互いに徐々に離間した後、徐々に接近する。   Thereafter, when the rotation of the operating body 14 continues, the pressing body 26 moves downward. In the downward movement of the pressing body 26, as shown in FIG. 4C, the connecting body 33 has no pressing body 26 until the pressing body 26 moves by a length L in the direction away from the lower seal body 9. Power is not directly transmitted from the upper link 37 and the rotation angle of the lower link 38 is maintained at the same angle as that in FIGS. During this time, the pressing of the coil spring 34 is gradually released. When the pressing body 26 is separated from the lower seal body 9 by a length L and the lower end portion of the cylindrical body 29 comes into contact with the concave portion 33a of the coupling body 33 (see FIG. 4 (d)), both the seal bodies 8 and 9 The upper and lower seal bodies 8, 9 are maintained while maintaining the same positional relationship among the connecting body 33, the pressing body 26, the coil spring 34, and the lower seal body 9 until the contact state (the state shown in FIG. 4A) is reached in the cycle. Gradually approach each other and then gradually approach each other.

スライドロッド22を上下移動可能に支持するガイド体20が支持パネル12によって前後方向に移動可能に支持されていることから、図1のごとく、上下のシール体8,9は対向状態を維持しながら、上シール体8が仮想線Vの軌跡で移動し、下シール体9が仮想線Wの軌跡で移動する。更に、上下のシール体8,9は図4(a)の当接状態になってから図4(b)の噛合状態を経て図4(c)の当接状態が終了する直前までの間、両シール体8,9の噛合位置を常に同じ高さ位置hに保持した状態で、特定の範囲だけ直線的に移動する。即ち、図1においては両シール体8,9は仮想線Xに一致するように筒状フィルム4の搬送方向下流に向けて直線的に移動する。そして、上下のシール体8,9が直線的に移動する間にコイルばね34が収縮することで、両シール体8,9によって筒状フィルム4に所定のシール圧が付与され、横シールが施される。   Since the guide body 20 that supports the slide rod 22 so as to be movable up and down is supported by the support panel 12 so as to be movable in the front-rear direction, the upper and lower seal bodies 8 and 9 are maintained facing each other as shown in FIG. The upper seal body 8 moves along the locus of the imaginary line V, and the lower seal body 9 moves along the locus of the imaginary line W. Further, the upper and lower seal bodies 8 and 9 are in contact with each other in FIG. 4A until just before the contact state in FIG. While the meshing positions of both the seal bodies 8 and 9 are always kept at the same height position h, the seal bodies 8 and 9 move linearly within a specific range. That is, in FIG. 1, both the sealing bodies 8 and 9 move linearly toward the downstream in the transport direction of the tubular film 4 so as to coincide with the virtual line X. Then, the coil spring 34 contracts while the upper and lower seal bodies 8 and 9 move linearly, whereby a predetermined seal pressure is applied to the tubular film 4 by the both seal bodies 8 and 9 and a lateral seal is applied. Is done.

次に、本発明の第2実施形態について第1実施形態との相違点を中心に図5を参照して説明する。なお、第1実施形態の構造と同じであるものについては、第1実施形態と同じ符号を用いて説明する。   Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 5 with a focus on differences from the first embodiment. In addition, what is the same as the structure of 1st Embodiment is demonstrated using the same code | symbol as 1st Embodiment.

第2実施形態においては、支持体52(他方の支持手段)を台部31(他方の支持手段)と連結体33(他方の支持手段)に一体連結し、シール体9(他方のシール体)をスライドロッド22に対して、上下方向に移動可能に配設すると共に、第1実施形態とは高さ位置が異なる作動体14(作動手段)の偏心ピン14bに対して回動支持された押圧体50(可動手段における延出部)を作動体14の回動に伴い上下移動し得るようスライドロッド22(一方の支持手段)に架設し、さらに、押圧体50を各スライドロッド22に取着されたストッパ53側に常に付勢するようコイルばね51(付勢手段)を各スライドロッド22に配設した点が、第1実施形態とは相違する。   In the second embodiment, the support body 52 (the other support means) is integrally connected to the base 31 (the other support means) and the coupling body 33 (the other support means), and the seal body 9 (the other seal body). Is arranged so as to be movable in the vertical direction with respect to the slide rod 22, and is supported by the eccentric pin 14b of the operating body 14 (operating means) having a height position different from that of the first embodiment. The body 50 (extension part in the movable means) is installed on the slide rod 22 (one support means) so that it can move up and down as the operating body 14 rotates, and the pressing body 50 is attached to each slide rod 22. The point which arrange | positioned the coil spring 51 (biasing means) to each slide rod 22 so that it always urges | biases to the stopper 53 side made differs from 1st Embodiment.

作動体14の回転により押圧体50が所定の高さ位置に降下するまではコイルばね51が長さを一定に保った状態で連結体24(一方の支持手段)を押圧することから、連結体24と一緒にスライドロッド22、ストッパ53及び上シール体8が降下する。連結体24の降下に伴ってトグルリンク機構35を介して下シール体9が上方へ移動するため、上下のシール体8,9が互いに接近して当接状態になる。上下のシール体8,9が互いに当接した後も、作動体14における偏心ピン14bが最下方に位置するまでは作動体14の回転により押圧体50が下方へ移動する。この両シール体8,9が当接した後の押圧体50の下方への移動においては、両シール体8,9が当接していることから、押圧体50はストッパ53から離れてコイルばね51を縮めながら連結体24に接近し、押圧体50がストッパ53から離間した状態が継続する。この間、押圧体50から連結体24への動力がコイルばね51によって吸収されて、上リンク37及び下リンク38の回動角度が維持されることから、上下のシール体8,9の噛合位置が保持され、両シール体8,9間にはコイルばね51の収縮によってシール圧が得られる。   The connecting body 24 (one supporting means) is pressed in a state where the coil spring 51 keeps the length constant until the pressing body 50 is lowered to a predetermined height position by the rotation of the operating body 14. The slide rod 22, the stopper 53 and the upper seal body 8 are lowered together with 24. As the connecting body 24 is lowered, the lower seal body 9 moves upward via the toggle link mechanism 35, so that the upper and lower seal bodies 8, 9 approach each other and come into contact with each other. Even after the upper and lower seal bodies 8 and 9 come into contact with each other, the pressing body 50 moves downward by the rotation of the operating body 14 until the eccentric pin 14b of the operating body 14 is positioned at the lowest position. In the downward movement of the pressing body 50 after the sealing bodies 8 and 9 are in contact with each other, since the sealing bodies 8 and 9 are in contact with each other, the pressing body 50 is separated from the stopper 53 and the coil spring 51. The state in which the pressing body 50 is moved away from the stopper 53 is continued while approaching the connecting body 24 while shrinking. During this time, the power from the pressing body 50 to the connecting body 24 is absorbed by the coil spring 51, and the rotational angles of the upper link 37 and the lower link 38 are maintained. The seal pressure is obtained between the seal bodies 8 and 9 by contraction of the coil spring 51.

従って、第1実施形態と同様に、上シール体8が図1の仮想線Vの軌跡で移動し、下シール体9が仮想線Wの軌跡で移動する。更に、上下のシール体8,9は当接状態になってから、噛合状態を経て当接状態が終了する直前までの間、両シール体8,9の噛合位置を常に同じ高さに保持した状態で、特定の範囲だけ直線的に移動する。図1においては、両シール体8,9は仮想線Xに一致するように筒状フィルム4の搬送方向下流に向けて直線的に移動する。そして、上下のシール体8,9が直線的に移動する間に、コイルばね51が収縮することで、両シール体8,9によって筒状フィルム4に所定のシール圧が付与され、横シールが施される。   Accordingly, as in the first embodiment, the upper seal body 8 moves along the locus of the imaginary line V in FIG. 1 and the lower seal body 9 moves along the locus of the imaginary line W. Further, the mesh positions of both the seal bodies 8 and 9 are always kept at the same height from the time when the upper and lower seal bodies 8 and 9 are brought into the contact state until immediately before the contact state is finished through the mesh state. In a state, it moves linearly by a specific range. In FIG. 1, both seal bodies 8 and 9 move linearly toward the downstream in the transport direction of the tubular film 4 so as to coincide with the virtual line X. Then, while the upper and lower seal bodies 8 and 9 move linearly, the coil spring 51 contracts, whereby a predetermined seal pressure is applied to the tubular film 4 by both the seal bodies 8 and 9, and the horizontal seal is Applied.

本実施形態は下記の効果を有する。
(1) 第1実施形態及び第2実施形態に係る横形製袋充填機のシール装置においては、上下のシール体8,9が当接状態となってから、作動体14の回転に伴い、押圧体26,50が上下のシール体8,9の対向方向に更に移動してコイルばね34,51を収縮させた状態(噛合状態)で、両シール体8,9が筒状フィルム4の搬送方向の下流に向けて特定の範囲だけ直線的に移動することによって、両シール体8,9によって筒状フィルムが上下方向に引っ張られることなく所定のシール圧を付与することができる。従って、簡素な構成によりシール動作を安定させ、良好なシール状態を得ることができる。また、コイルばね34,51の劣化等によるばね定数の変化に影響を受けることなく、両シール体8,9が当接する位置を適正位置に維持することができる。
This embodiment has the following effects.
(1) In the sealing device of the horizontal bag making and filling machine according to the first embodiment and the second embodiment, after the upper and lower sealing bodies 8 and 9 are in contact with each other, the pressing is performed as the operating body 14 rotates. When the bodies 26 and 50 are further moved in the opposing direction of the upper and lower seal bodies 8 and 9 and the coil springs 34 and 51 are contracted (meshing state), both the seal bodies 8 and 9 are in the conveying direction of the tubular film 4. By moving linearly by a specific range toward the downstream, a predetermined sealing pressure can be applied without the tubular film being pulled in the vertical direction by the seal bodies 8 and 9. Therefore, the sealing operation can be stabilized with a simple configuration, and a good sealing state can be obtained. Moreover, the position where both the seal bodies 8 and 9 abut can be maintained at an appropriate position without being affected by a change in the spring constant due to deterioration of the coil springs 34 and 51 or the like.

(2) 第1実施形態及び第2実施形態に係る横形製袋充填機のシール装置においては、押圧体26,50の移動に伴い両シール体8,9の噛合時に所定のシール圧を付与する付勢手段として、コイルばね34,51を利用したので、付勢手段の構成を簡素にすることができる。   (2) In the sealing device of the horizontal bag making and filling machine according to the first embodiment and the second embodiment, a predetermined sealing pressure is applied when the sealing bodies 8 and 9 are engaged with each other as the pressing bodies 26 and 50 move. Since the coil springs 34 and 51 are used as the biasing means, the configuration of the biasing means can be simplified.

(3) 第1実施形態及び第2実施形態に係る横形製袋充填機のシール装置においては、支持手段としての連結体24,33及びスライドロッド22、トグルリンク機構35で連結し、また、トグルリンク機構35におけるガイド体20を筒状フィルム4の搬送方向に移動可能に支持したので、ギヤ等を用いることがない簡素なトグルリンク機構35を用いて単一のサーボモータ16の駆動力で上下のシール体8,9を筒状フィルム4の搬送方向に移動させると共に、両シール体8,9を対向方向における相反する向きに移動させることができる。   (3) In the sealing device of the horizontal bag making and filling machine according to the first embodiment and the second embodiment, the connecting bodies 24 and 33 as the support means, the slide rod 22 and the toggle link mechanism 35 are connected. Since the guide body 20 in the link mechanism 35 is supported so as to be movable in the conveying direction of the tubular film 4, it is moved up and down by a driving force of a single servo motor 16 using a simple toggle link mechanism 35 that does not use a gear or the like. The seal bodies 8 and 9 can be moved in the conveying direction of the tubular film 4, and the seal bodies 8 and 9 can be moved in opposite directions in the opposing direction.

(4) 第1実施形態及び第2実施形態に係る横形製袋充填機のシール装置においては、一方の支持手段の一部であって、両シール体8,9の対向方向に延出した複数の延出部(第1実施形態における軸部32、第2実施形態におけるスライドロッド22)によって、可動手段としての押圧体26,50を移動可能に案内支持することで、押圧体26,50を対向方向に安定性良く滑らかに案内することができる。   (4) In the sealing device of the horizontal bag making and filling machine according to the first embodiment and the second embodiment, a plurality of portions that are a part of one support means and extend in the opposing direction of both seal bodies 8 and 9. The pressing bodies 26 and 50 are movably guided and supported by the extending portions (the shaft portion 32 in the first embodiment and the slide rod 22 in the second embodiment) so that the pressing bodies 26 and 50 are movable. It can be guided smoothly and stably in the facing direction.

(5) 第1実施形態に係る横形製袋充填機のシール装置においては、下シール体9の下方にコイルばね34を組み込んだので、コイルばね34などの清掃や調整などメンテナンスする際に有利である。   (5) In the sealing device of the horizontal bag making and filling machine according to the first embodiment, since the coil spring 34 is incorporated below the lower seal body 9, it is advantageous when performing maintenance such as cleaning and adjustment of the coil spring 34 and the like. is there.

本発明の趣旨に反しない範囲で前記実施形態以外にも適宜変更可能であり、例えば下記のような構成を採用することができる。
・ 付勢手段については、上下のシール体8,9を当接状態から噛合状態に変更して、所定のシール圧を付与し得るものであれば、コイルばね34,51に代えて、板ばねや、ゴム等の弾性体や、電磁石などを採用してもよい。また、本実施形態では、押圧体26,50を滑らかに移動させるために、コイルばね34,51を左右に均等に複数配設したが、単一のばねでもよい。
The present invention can be modified as appropriate in addition to the above-described embodiment without departing from the spirit of the present invention. For example, the following configuration can be employed.
As for the urging means, if the upper and lower seal bodies 8 and 9 are changed from the contact state to the meshing state and a predetermined seal pressure can be applied, the leaf springs are replaced with the coil springs 34 and 51. Alternatively, an elastic body such as rubber or an electromagnet may be employed. Moreover, in this embodiment, in order to move the press bodies 26 and 50 smoothly, the plurality of coil springs 34 and 51 are equally disposed on the left and right, but a single spring may be used.

・ 力伝達機構については、トグルリンク機構35に代えて、歯車機構を採用して上下のシール体8,9を相反する向きに同じ距離だけ移動させてもよい。
